@ceilingFANBOY: now with 100% more fanboy: ...or the numbers will just be really small. Neglected to factor in that both knobs would wear out.

@mtfbmx: That was the first thing I thought.

I must say, I've never gotten an Etch-A-Sketch to erase that cleanly. Also, once the knobs start to where out, those numbers are going to start looking like someone viewing a widescreen program on a non-widescreen TV without letterboxing bars.

this is real etch a sketch art

@strider_mt2k: I'm not going to actually watch that video and assume I know what it is based on the still frame. That smelled delicious!

I think that the whole sketch a clock is pretty cool. Definitely not practical as it looks huge, but I could see myself watching this all day. It would be more fun if the inventor could figure out a way for it to tic out "seconds". I'm sure due to the length of time it takes to write out the time, the actual number would be decreased by a few...

@se7a7n7: You're right you know.

We've all had a good laugh here today, but I think it behooves us all to check our colons.

Because no colon: No piece of crap.

I think even a time-telling "Etch-A-Sketch" knows that.

And knowing is half the battle.

That's some awesome u-controller action right there. Although, I would guess that it's going way to loud to be practical though. Pong clock prevails.

It's like the 'Sketch is in a bondage chair...getting it's knobs twisted...

Nice! But why didn't the person start recording at 12:59 and then have it switch to 1:00. It would have been more dramatically different that way.

M.O.D.O.K.

Some people have too much "time" on their hands.

Looks like something Doc Brown would have next to his automatic dog-feeder.

heh, I want to see this draw me a mona lisa or something. How cares about the time, leave that to crazy LEDs.

I'll bet if you overclock this (yes, double pun intended), you could watch actual video clips at 2 frames/minute.

pdok

Just because something can be done, doesn't mean it should be... meh!

no colon ":"?

what a piece of crap

I love it! I'll take 100,000!

Remove the etch-a-sketch, and set it up as a grade school bully torture device. Double purple-nurples every minute.

CaptRavis

That's a sweet-ass Casio being used to prove the time...

NFlames

Awful. It takes 30 seconds to draw the time every 60 seconds... that means when I glance over to see the time there's 50% of the "time" that I cannot get the info I need. Man, I'm on a deadline here - I need performance!

huygir

If my power blinks does it constantly draw 12 00?

Bzzzy

That's sweet! Especially because drawing on those things was always frickin hard (impossible).
